A larger number is double the sum of 3 and a smaller number. The larger number is 2 less than 3 times the smaller number. If y represents the larger number and x represents the smaller number, which equations model the situation? Check all that apply. Y = 3 x minus 2 3 x minus y = 2 3 x minus y = negative 2 y = 2 minus 3 x y = 2 (x + 3)

1- is the product of two rational numbers irrational or rational? first, make a hypothesis by multiplying two rational numbers. then, use variables such as x=a/b and y=c/d and the closure property of integers to prove your hypothesis. 2- what do you think the product of a nonzero rational number and an irrational number is? is it rational or irrational? make use of variables, the closure property of integers, and possibly a proof by contradiction to prove your hypothesis. 3- why do we have to specify that the rational number must be nonzero when we determine what the product of a nonzero rational number and an irrational number is? if the rational number were 0, would it give us the same result we found in part b?
